The Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance (SUWA) has sued the Department of the Interior over the Bureau of Land Management (BLM)'s decision to approve a potash mining project, the Sevier Playa Potash Project (SPP), located in Utah's West Desert. SUWA alleged that the BLM failed to meet the standards of environmental impact review before approving the project. SUWA further argued that by approving the project, BLM violated the National Environmental Protection Act (NEPA) and the Administrative Procedure Act.
